June 3, 19?? Tallahatchie County, Mississippi, USA, year unknown
Today is the day that the [unnamed] parents of Billie Joe McAllister’s girlfriend made some insinuations about what their [also unnamed] daughter had been doing recently with Billie Joe McAllister at the Tallahatchee Bridge. It's a mystery.
The probably fictitious Billie Joe jumped off the Tallahatchee Bridge, too, on this day, an incident recalled in the 1967 hit song Ode to Billy Joe by Bobbie Gentry, a singer from Tallahatchie County, Mississippi, USA.
The year 1953 is given by some sources but I see no evidence.
